9、be impossible to succeed in selling a product without first investigating the market.In the investigational market, goods on sale coming from different countries and suppliers are always facing keen competition. Under such circumstances, they will try everything possible to familiarize themselves wi

10、th the market conditions.

There are many channels that we can make use of in doing this sort of work. The commercial cou

11、nselors offices of our embassies stationed abroad can help us in making market investigations. Nowadays, our import and export corporations send their trade groups abroad every now and then. One of their purposes is to make market surveys on the spot.Certainly, face-to-face talks with foreign busine

12、ssmen are also important channels to get market information.

16、tioned abroadB. to promote the quality of our own productsC. to send trade groups abroad every now and thenD. to have face-to-face talks with foreign businessmenPassage 2Because we can feel that things are heavy, we think of weight as being a fixed quality in an object, but it is not really fixed at

17、 all. If you could take one-pound packet of butter 4,000 miles out from the earth, it would weigh only a quarter of a pound.Why would things weigh only a quarter as much as they do at the surface of the earth if we took them 4,000 miles out into space? The reason is this: All objects have a natural

18、attraction for all other objects; this is called gravitational attraction, but this power of attraction between two objects gets weaker as they get farther apart. When the butter was at the surface of the earth, it was 4,000 miles from the centre (in other words, the radius of the earth is 4,000 mil

19、es). When we took the butter 4,000 miles out, it was 8,000 miles from the centre, which is twice the distance.If you double the distance between two subjects, their gravitational attraction decreases two times two. If you treble the distance, it gets nine times weaker (three times three). If you tak

20、e it four times as far away, it gets sixteen times weaker (four times four) and so on.26. The best title for this passage is D.A. The Earth WeightB. Weight in SpaceC. Changing Weight on the earthD. Weight on and off the Earth27. We can feel things are heavy becauseC.A. weight is a fixed quality in a

21、n objectB. they are far away from the centre of the earthC. of the earths strong attraction for themD. they are not taken away from the surface of the earth28.

22、e the sameD. get four times weaker29. If an object weighed one pound 8,000 miles above the earth, it would weigh_B_ on the surface of the earth.A. 6 poundsB. 4 poundsC. 9 poundsD. 1/9 pound30. Gravitational attraction is _D.A. fixedB. quite weakC. quite strongD. not fixedPassage 3The development of

23、Jamestown in Virginia during the second half of the seventeenth century was closely related to the making and using of bricks. There are several practical reasons why bricks became important to the colony.Although the forests could initially supply sufficient timber, the process of limbering was ext

24、remely difficult, particularly because of the lack of roads. Later, when the timber on the peninsula had been depleted, wood had to be brought from some distance. Building stone was also in short supply. However, as clay was plentiful, it was inevitably that the colonists would turn to brickmaking.I

25、n addition to practical reasons for using brick as the principal construction material, there was also an ideological reason. Brick represented durability and permanence. The Virginia company of London instructed the colonists to build hospitals and new residences out of brick. In 1662, the town Act

26、 of the Virginia Assembly provided for the construction of thirty-two brick buildings and prohibited the use of wood as a construction material. Had this law ever been successfully enforced, Jamestown would have been a model city. Instead, the residents failed to comply fully with the law; and by 16

27、99 Jamestown had collapsed into a pile of rubble with only three or four houses where people could stay.31. .What is the subject of this message? 4A. The reasons for brickmaking in Jamestown.B.

30、ourcesD. a wooded peninsula with a clay soil.35.It can be inferred from the passage that settlers who built with bricks in the 1660,s were_B_.A. planning to return to EnglandB. obeying the lawsC. not concerned about durabilityD. interested in larger residence三、填空题（用所给词语的正确形式填空，每小题2分，共计10分。）Direction

And there is plenty of fresh water in the rivers and lakes. What is more, we have a lot of underground water.Actually, fr

35、esh water is in a short supply. Due to the rapid population increase, fresh water consumption remains great. Besides, with the development of industry, more water is needed. Moreover, a lot of our rivers and lakes have been so polluted that water from them is undrinkable.We must take measures to solve the problem of water shortage. First, population growth should be slowed down to reduce fresh water need. Second, pollution should be controlled to purify fresh water in the rivers and lakes. Last, we should cherish every drop of water in our daily life.
